Plant–animal interactions (PAI) represent major channels of energy transfer through
ecosystems, where both positive and antagonistic interactions simultaneously contribute to …

Terrestrial mammals shape their ecosystems, and mammalian community assemblages can
be important indicators of ecosystem functioning and ecosystem changes over time …

Habitat selection is a multi-scale process driven by trade-offs between benefits, such as
resource abundance, and disadvantages, such as the avoidance of risk. The latter includes …

Large carnivores promote crucial ecosystem processes but are increasingly threatened by
human persecution and habitat destruction. Successful conservation of this guild requires …

Large herbivores play a key role in terrestrial ecosystems, and their populations alter the
plant composition in many ecosystems. One example is deer, whose populations in the …

In recent decades, grazing by wild and domestic ungulates has become a strategy for
conservation management to restore or maintain open landscapes. One of the species …

The recolonization of human‐dominated landscapes by large carnivores has been followed
with considerable scientific interest; however, little is known about their interactive effect on …

We analyzed the effects of natural disturbances on relationships between forest
regeneration and ungulate browsing. Specifically, we asked if natural disturbances affect …

The recruitment of forest trees is driven by both bottom-up processes (the acquisition of
resources) and top-down processes (herbivory). To initiate stand regeneration, foresters …

Main conclusion Environmental DNA-based monitoring provides critical insights for
